Wow I had a lot of unredeemed keys... I suppose all these work since they were on the list.

Thank you Anonymous for the Sims Stuff Pack. :) I've been in a Sims 3 mood lately, and that is a very welcome giveaway (I never did get any of the Stuff packs!).

here's a couple spares

Yeah, some payment problem evidently. I don't want to out anyone, just wanted to express being bummed.

Yeah, as Desques just said, it means the buyer issued a chargeback, though it can also happen with retail keys if the publisher requests certain ones be revoked.

Played a bit more guacamelee super turbo whatever edition, the game is basically a remix version of guacamelee, with the new intenso power gauge, and some tweaked enemy spawns here and there which I find pretty cool, there are a few areas and enemies added to mix things up and the new sections are implemented inbetween the original areas, so it flows really well.

As for combat I think they turned up it up a bit so the player could use the new intenso mode a bit more.

One thing I didn't like is that overall there are a bit too many of the "rushing" type combat scenarios, like making the player kill x amount of enemies within a timeframe, it sometimes comes in the form of death traps, or exploding bombs, etc, so you have to kill a set of enemies as quick as possible, although I understand they want to mix things up, it is my least favorite type. Another thing is that sometimes I have difficulty telling where my character is or telling what's going on when there are too many enemies on screen on top of each other.

Some platforming sections are decent in some of the new areas, but I'm not too sure if they're that memorable so far. Game is still pretty fun and I think if you want more guacamelee and wanted a replay, it's worth it especially if you have some card money to spend. Game is a standalone with all the new contents added so you're going to be doing everything again (you'll even have to do the konami code to unlock hardmode), for people who have already played through it a few times recently might want to take a break before revisiting.

Thats really convenient. How much is that in dollar? Here its 14,97€. Just wondering if its even cheaper in dollars.

It should be $20 (~€15.10) on the US store, judging from the game's Steam base price of $40.

Edit: Bah, didn't switch tabs.

Also, quick thing about Curse: The Eye of Isis;

header_292x136.jpg


I haven't played it myself, but I've heard from others it's pretty good. It's a Resident Evil clone game with an Egyptian mythological theme that takes place in a museum. I think it's worthwhile to mention when older horror titles hit Steam, and this is one of them I've recognized and need to try at some point (especially as I already own it). Generally for a Resident Evil clone, it's been recognized as a good one by horror fans, easier than the 'average' horror game, but also notable some improved controls from the era, decent voice acting from the era, pretty good music, and a pretty interesting story. Not in the amazing league, but the good league. But it's $2.99 right now, so...
I want to say it doesn't look bad for the circumstances and the price is pretty low, but when will I really have the time to play a third party budget RE clone from 2003?

Interesting release, though.
 
Except on a Tuesday, but only if you have your crocodile leased.

I dont really get it. I am a law graduate and have never heard of any law like that. I can buy whatever I want from Amazon whenever I want. At shops I can buy M-rated games whenever I want (because no shop here is even opened after 22:00). On Steam I can buy whatever I want.

So I wonder why Ubisoft has such a system...

What law is that?

Actually I do not have a clue. I have never heard of this before.
 
Okay...

Because of some german laws I can only buy Black Flag from 22:00-06:00...

There is no law that requires that. It's just Ubisoft being weird. You can buy 18+ titles on Amazon or Steam at any point in the day.
You have to somehow make sure that minors can't access your content and I guess everyone under 8 being asleep at that time is enough for them or something.
